## Hiera-Puppet 1.0.0rc2 Release Notes ##

(#15184) Refactor parser functions

    This patch refactors the parser functions which centralizes hiera
    configuration and lookups into a new `HieraPuppet` module.

    The spec tests have be reorganized into a better hierarchy.

    Updated specs and acceptance tests are included.

(#12122) Use nil as default answer in lookup

    Synchronize with the way backends work in Hiera 1.0 by starting with nil
    instead of Backend.empty_answer
